9:02 pm
from much of the area, the big worry, about 75 miles from where we are four nuclear power plants affected by the earthquake, the cooling system affected by the quake. an explosion was seen from one of the reactors yesterday. a plume of radio active gas. a 12-mile exclusion zone being placed around the air. the big fear of a core meltdown. this as rescue and relief efforts go into full steam. 50,000 japanese troops. the uss ronald reagan aircraft carrier and other u.s. ships coming into the area as well as other international agencies. the roads impa impassible. a mammoth job ahead. >> i want to bring in someone who has toured the nuclear plants in japan.
9:03 pm
james, thanks for being with us tonight. we are hearing reports and have seen video of an actual ex-clock at the power plant and they are saying it did not breach the containment wall. does that make sense to you? >> it does make sense. the very heart of the nuclear power plant you have the reactor itself and that is surrounded by a solid building that is designed to keep everything inside from spilling outside. and then surrounding that further are a number of less critical facilities. it appears to be one of those that exploded and the japanese government has reported there has been no damage to the containment vessel itself. we don't know why the explosion has taken place but it appears that the explosion is not the power plant's main problem at the moment. >> and yet they are now talking about the fact that they are trying to stablize the reactor
9:04 pm
and there is a release of some of the steam into the environment, indeed. they are saying that some radiation is being released. what are your thoughts about that? >> well, judge, you see when you shut down a nuclear power plant you don't instantaneously, you can't instantaneously shut off the heat that is produces and that heat has to go some where. under normal operations you are able to cool the core of the plant and take that heat away safely. the problem is that the earthquake and then the tsunami appears to have knocked out the generator, the electrical production equipment that drives the pumps in order to cool the reactor. as a result because it is not being cooled properly a lot of steam is being produced. that steam has to go some where and it has to be released into the environment. at the moment -- >> and that, james, is the question. where does it go? when you say it is released
9:05 pm
into the environment? what in the wind changes? how far does it expand? does it dissipate? the air? >> it is going to be like anything released into the air. it is going to disburse and dissipate as the wind takes it. the thing that i want to emphasize is right now based on the information we have the amount of radio activity that has been released into the environment is very small. and the dangers to people and the environment at the moment is pretty minimal. the concern is if the core starts to melt there is a possibility o not a certainty but a possibility that much larger quantities of radiation could be released into the environment. >> if the radiation is being released is minimal, why are they giving out iodine? i think the concern is that there could be a larger release of radiation and it may also be to make people feel better. i mean iodine tablets do
9:06 pm
mitigate some what the effects of a largescale release of radiation. i think if that were realized it was unpreventable they would be evacuating people and extend the evacuation area yet further. >> of course, that is another issue. i'm not sure that they would release iodine to make people feel better, they have so many other things to deal with. missing trains, one village, 9500, or 9800 people. let's assume that as the radiation dissipates and they already evacuated a 12-mile radius of this nuclear power plant, and 140,000 people, you know, first of all where are these people going? and secondly, it has got to be serious for them to evacuate 140,000 people. >> i don't think there is any question this is serious. you know, judge, you raise an exceptionally important point there which is we have to remember japan is dealing with
9:07 pm
the largest earthquake in its history. dealing with a massive tsunami follow-up. and on top of the nuclear power plant there is the entire country is having to deal with this enormous catastrophe. so there is no -- they wouldn't be doing this if the situation weren't serious. but i think it is necessary to distinguish here between a serious situation because it has the potential to get worse and it actually he getting worse. we haven't yet seen a significant core meltdown. and hopefully we won't. >> but if the unthinkable did happen and there were a meltdown, i mean what would be -- what would actually happen and what would the global effect be? >> well, there is actually a range of outcomes. the three mile island accident in 1979 did more the core melting but there actually wasn't very much radiation release inside the environment. that is actually the best case.
9:08 pm
it wouldn't look all that different from what we have now. a more extreme case and i emphasize this is only one of a number of possible outcomes, the worst possible case would be core meltdown coupled with significant release of radio activity into the environment. japan can evacuate people from around the plant but any large injection of radio activity into the environment is damaging because of its long-term effects on human health. >> all right, james, stay with us. we will have more on this disaster in japan when we come back. the motorola xoom tablet.

9:11 pm
it seems like your life with rheis split in two.s, there's the life you live... and the life you want to live. fortunately there's enbrel. enbrel can help relieve pain, stiffness, fatigue, and stop joint damage. because enbrel suppresses your immune system, it may lower your ability to fight infections. serious, sometimes fatal, events including infections, tuberculosis, lymphoma, and other cancers, and nervous system and blood disorders have occurred. before starting enbrel, your doctor should test you for tuberculosis. ask your doctor if you live or have lived in an area where certain fungal infections are common. don't start enbrel if you have an infection like the flu. tell your doctor if you're prone to infections, have cuts or sores, have had hepatitis b, have been treated for heart failure, or if, while on enbrel, you experience persistent fever, bruising, bleeding, or paleness. ask your rheumatologist if enbrel is right for you. and help bridge the gap between the life you live...
9:12 pm
and the life you want to live. we're back with james who is with us from washington, d.c. james, we were talking about the worst case scenario if the unthinkable were to happen. and i guess my question is if there were a meltdown and i think the fact that they are using some of the seawater to cool off the center of the core is an indication of how almost desperate they are to get this thing cooled off. what actually would happen in japan? >> well, a colleague of mine described pumping seawater into the core of a reactor as something of a hail mary. this is very unorthodox and tantamount to writing off the reactor.
9:13 pm
had the operators of the reactor not believed there was a serious risk of losing it anyway they wouldn't have taken this step. if the worst happens and there is a meltdown there is possibility of everything from very little release of radiation into the environment all the way to extensive release of radiation into the environment. very hard to predict what will happen. >> the japanese from what we are hearing as we look at a lot of this have been very detailed in terms of building their infrastructure that is kiffent consistent with the possibility of earthquakes and tsunamis. should this reactor even have been operating, it was one of the older ones that came online in 1971? >> the japanese nuclear industry take safety incredibly seriously. this is a very important issue for them. and i have no doubt whatsoever that this reactor was capable of withstanding what it was
9:14 pm
designed to withstand. i suspect the problem is going to come out in the weeks and months to follow is the design requirements for the reactor were insufficient. it was never required to withstand the size of earthquake that it actually did. japan has to looking forward to an assessment and ask is it capable of withstanding the earthquakes that might actually occur in japan. >> i think that greg palkot is now joining us from japan. greg, are you there? >> reporter: hey, how are you? >> i'm fine. and what we are trying to find out, greg, in the very little time that we have left is what the is the latest and what do you know about the nuclear reactors? >> we are about 75 miles down the coast from that troubled nuclear reactor. there is about a 12-mile exclusion zone around it since all of the problems we have been track there for the last
9:15 pm
two daysers the damage to the cooling structur structure aroe reactor, the injuries at the site. there has been an evacuation of the immediate area. again, at least 12 miles out. we are told that within about 60 miles it is tough to move around there. what we also have been told by the nuclear agency here in japan is that they pumped seawater into the compartment around the reactor rods to try to avoid that worst case scenario, of course, of the core meltdown. but in fact, officials here are reassuring at least to the public that they do have things relatively under control. again, we are about 75 miles down the coast. otherwise, we are here in a fishing village that got hit very hard by both the earthquake and then the tsunami. behind me, if we can take a shot you might be able to see one of many boats that are no longer in the harbor.
9:16 pm
they have been moved up by a 30-foot wall of water that came here friday afternoon in japan. also up and down the street trucks and cars thrown around like so many toys and the houses here have been hit very hard too. again, the japanese architecture standards very strong against earthquake damage and these structures are in this area in pretty good shape. a lot of damage, a lot of mess and a lot of debris all around here judge. >> very quickly, any word on the 9500 people or so missing from that village? >> that is the thing. the government is now saying anywhere from 1300 to 1700 dead but from what we have been hearing from people on the ground there are tens of thousands of people who are missing or unaccounted for. they could go from one column to the other column in the coming days and that is what all efforts are being made not just relief for people who are
9:17 pm
stranded here without food, without water, without electricity but also to search for others who are missing. >> greg, thank you so much. stay safe. our thoughts and prayers are with all of those affected by this. thank you, greg and thank you, james. coming up we talk with minnesota congressman michele bachmann. will she add republican presidential candidate to her resume? that's coming up on "justice."

9:18 pm
across the country when the economy tumbled, jpmorgan chase set up new offices to work one-on-one with homeowners. since 2009, we've helped over 250,000 americans

9:20 pm
now, to events in wisconsin where protesters are refusing to give up even though governor scott walker signd that controversial bill curtailing collective bargaining.
9:21 pm
massive rallies outside the state capitol today and those missing democratic lawmakers finally making an appearance, joining in the protests. now, coming out of their self-imposed exile. joining me now is minnesota congress woman michele bachmann who joins us from washington, d.c. welcome. what happened in wisconsin this past week? do you think that was an endrun by the republicans or do you think that was justice for the people of wisconsin? >> i think it is reflective, judge, of the results of last november's election. it was a changed election in wisconsin. they had a liberal senator, they replaced him with a conservative senator. they had a liberal governor and replaced with a conservative governor. a liberal legislature replaced with a conservative because the people were, quite frankly, finished with out of control spending and they wanted the legislature to do something. i think what we saw was a legislature and the governor
9:22 pm
acting in accordance with the people's wishes and so i think that is what we are seeing is justice prevailed for the people of wisconsin. >> and what was interesting watching this was the aggression of the protesters. shouting and climbing through windows and being, you know, as aggressive as they could and my question is if they are pushing their way into the capitol building and being dragged out, are these people from wisconsin? i mean what was going on here? are these outsiders? >> well, you wonder because you are right about the damage, judge. it was $6 million worth of damage in the capitol to the marble. a million dollars worth of damage to the mar arable outside the capitol. $7.5 million worth of damage and now the taxpayers have to bear that burden as well. this is unconscionable. just as i came into the studio today there was a mob out here in washington, d.c. that gathered for the reason for the cameras. they wanted to make a scene about this issue.
9:23 pm
i think the people see through this because the taxpayers can't take it any more. they can't take any higher taxes. they want government to live within its means and after all, all that wisconsin is asking is that the government employees that have very high job security pay a portion of their healthcare and a portion of their pension. far less than even their counterparts in the private sector. this is not a difficult ask. it is only reasonable. and the other thing, judge, i want to say, this isn't even the opening act. this is barely the prologue. over $1 trillion of unfunded liabilities for state and local governments are hanging out there. this isn't a one time event, judge. this will be repeated over and over and over again against the united states and i'm glad that wisconsin's is turning out the way it is. >> when you talk about the damage to the buildings and millions the taxpayers end up paying, even more fundamental than that, congress woman is
9:24 pm
the fact that you have teachers who weren't teaching. you had the capitol is open when it should be closed. there are so many expenses in terms of law enforcement, troopers looking for lawmakers on the lamb. i mean this is just, you know, going crazy in terms of the expense to the taxpayers. and i hope at some point people really look at what the whole shenanigan has cost the people of wisconsin. how do you think this whole thing is going to play out in the 2012 election? >> i think this will boomer rang as far as the liberals are concerned because people look at this and see that people have left their posts of duty for three weeks, four weeks. i couldn't do that. you couldn't do that and still be paid. and these are people who are still being paid. they even brought fake sick notices back to their employer. i think people are fed up with this because so many people are out of work and can't sell their homes and gas prices over $4 a gallon 86 don't think there is a lot of sympathy for
9:25 pm
government workers who are just being asked to pay a small portion for their own health and pension benefits. a lot of people in the private sector don't even have pension benefits. >> the big issue for most of them i think was the collective bargaining issue and that is really the mantra that we are going to hear i believe as we go forward to the 2012 election. >> they still have collective bargaining over wages, just not over benefits because for every dollar paid in the milwaukee school system on wages 72 cents is also paid on benefits. >> no question about it. are you willing, congresswoman to let the federal government shut down as opposed to come mice on what is going on with the federal budget and not increase the debt limit? >> let's state with a government shutdown. >> good, you are one of the first people go following do this. >> social security checks still go out the door and all of the
9:26 pm
essential units of government continue to go on and the shutdown, it is the nonessential services that is shut down. this is what we need to have a discussion over and why i'm willing to vote no on a bill and allow the nonessential functions to shut down because we need to get back all of the money, $105 billion that was wrongly put in the obama care legislation. >> i'm curious about, okay, so if there is a shut down and nobody has really spoken to exactly what happens. people think their mail isn't going to come any more and government offices and courthouses are shut down. how deep does it go? >> it goes to the ranks of the essential services. as i said, social security checks go out and also the military continues to function. and down to what the government considers essential government services. government is very big as you know, judge. that determination is made literally within every office
9:27 pm
how many people stay as essential and how many are considered nonessential. >> we will have more with congresswoman bachman in a moment, including what her plans are for 2012.

9:30 pm
this is a fox news alert. i'm harris faulkner in new york. a potential nuclear meltdown. the main threat at this hour in japan. concern focused on a nuclear power plant just north of tokyo. japan's news agency reporting radiation levels there surpass the legal limit. an explosion there earlier at the building that housed a reactor. intact but still in attacks authorities evacuating 140,000 people nearby. and take a look at this video. not ja man but california where the texts of japan's tsunami has been felt. a rippling affect along the
9:31 pm
coast of santa cruz. the monster waves believed to have swept a 25-year-old man to his death. i'm harris faulkner. now, let's get you back to justice with judge jeanine. for the very latest, fox news .com. we're back with representative michele bachmann. congresswoman, what is your biggest objection to obama care? >> well, number one, the cost. but it is the fact that is really is at its heart socialized medicine where the government decides what care we get, what level of care we get and what access. we have never seen before, judge, a system where socialized medicine has worked in the world. free markets work in healthcare. i want the highest quality for the greatest number of people at the cheapest price. that is what the free markets deliver and i'm worried that our great system of healthcare will be destroyed if obama care goes forward. >> and, of course, you know, we have got federal courts all
9:32 pm
over this country coming to different conclusions. specifically on the issue of the individual mandate. interesting to see the government say it is not a penalty, it is a tax. it is not a tax, it as is a penalty. hopefully this thing will be fast tracked to the united states supreme court. you mentioned earlier about the $105 billion that was in the obama care that you say no one notice. tell us about that. >> it sounds odd but in the obama care legislation that is called an authorization bill where congress creates something but it is not congress' practice to put money in an authorization bill. we passed a separate bill called an appropriation. there was no discussion and you won't find any newspaper stories or radio shows for tv shows about the money cut up into little pieces and spread out between 3,000 pages. there was no discussion.
9:33 pm
>> well, congresswoman, you you know what is interesting is that i think very few people know that you are an attorney but you are not just an attorney, you were a federal tax litigator. and that certainly gives you a great deal of credibility on this issue. and i find it stunning that you have got the federal government that can -- or nancy pelosi and the democrats who have throw $105 billion in the bill and nobody knew it. how much money has slipped through the cracks that we don't know about? you wonder why we are in such a mess. >> you are exactly right. and, of course, remember speaker pelosi famously said we have to pass the bill to know what is in it. she didn't give the bill to members of congress until right before we were supposed to vote on it. harry reid did that in the senate. remember, where a bill would come before us and hurry, hurry, hurry, got to pass this today. we could never read them. they were thousands of pages long. this happened time and time
9:34 pm
again. only in this case president obama was given a series of post dated checks between now and 2019 for the purpose of implementing obama care. they wanted to thwart the will of the people, judge, because they knew that people don't want socialized medicine. they didn't care. so they already funded this bill from now until 2019. so now we have an opportunity to get rid of it because we have a continuing resolution next wednesday that we'll vote on to fund the government. if we put language on that pulls the post dated checks back then they he can't put into place socialized medicine. we need your viewers to call their member of congress and say vote no on any more money until we get that obama care money back. >> so you are talking about that $105 million clawback before we do anything else. >> that's right. >> and not balancing that that we didn't know about but instead we don't get started until we get that money back is that what you are saying? >> we are already in the hole
9:35 pm
another $105 billion. they are spending money faster than we can earn it. >> let's move on to the issue of the tea party. what do you make of the allegations that the tea party is racist? i have to throw something in here are. with the luncheo lunacy in wisn and people crawling in windows and they say the tea party is racist. what do you make of that? >> shows that the left is so deathly afraid of the tea party because it is made up of democrats, independents, republican, libertarians, a huge swath of people that want the country to work again. they want budgets to balance and they want the congress to follow the constitution and that is it. that is the tea party and that is why it is wildly popular and the left is deathly afraid of this because they want to continue out of control spending. >> you know, and in terms of specifics, i mean there is just time and time again that it is repeated and i often wonder what it is based on.
9:36 pm
show me a picture, you know, in this age of technology, you should see something to corroborate the allegation. >> that's right. that's right. as a matter of fact, rewards were offered, $10,000 if any one could show a videotape of racism by the tea party. nobody could find anything. these are just pejorative terms showing really more about the people making the charge than about the tea party. >> now, i will go to something a little lighter. julian moore is playing governor palin in an upcoming movie. who would you want to play you you when hollywood tells your story? >> julie ann moore is gorgeous and as long as the actress is beautiful it wouldn't bother me at all. >> finally, 2012. you have been to the important states, iowa, south carolina and now new hampshire. what can you tell us about 2012? >> well, aim he looking forward of being a part of the
9:37 pm
narrative for 2012. setting the table, if you will, for the big issues that we need to focus on for whoever our nominee will be. i haven't said if i'm in or i haven't said if i'm out. this is a momentous decision to make. it will affect me, my family, our future. we are weighing this very carefully. >> when will you decide? >> i think it as natural timeline that a candidate follows. this summer sometime we will have to make a decision. it is important, this is an awesome responsibility that the primary voters have and especially in the first four states they may well choose our nominee. so i just want to have certain issues. >> thank you very much. i'm sure there will be some tea at your table. and coming up on "justice." a man who tortured and killed a five-year-old boy is set to be released from prison early for good behavior. that outrage, next on

9:41 pm
he tortured and killed a five-year-old boy. and for that, michael was sentenced to 40 years in prison but may be getting out early for good behavior. and the father of his victim has something to say about that. >> i do intend if this man is released anywhere in my
9:42 pm
vicinity or can find him after the fact, do intend to kill this man. >> john foreman seen here in 19821 talking about the man who killed his son jason. jason was just five years old when the neighbor then just 16 years old lured him into his home and then bruteally tortured and killed him. now, because of a rhode island law he is being released from prison early and foreman says he won't rest until he gets justice for his little boy. >> i'm beside myself. i can't sleep. all i think about is trying to find a way to get to this man to kill him. that is in my ever i have thought. >> jason foreman was abducted in 1975 but the boy's skeletal remains weren't discovered in the bedroom until seven years later when michael tried to abduct a 14-year-old boy.
9:43 pm
along with yeah, son's remains police found a journal describing the atrocities that the young boy endured. in 1982 that journal was sealed by the court. >> why is someone as dangerous as he being put back on the streets? correction officials say the child killer and torturer has been a model prisoner and so they have no choice but to let him go 12 years early for good behavior. michael is scheduled to be released in august 2011. >> jason foreman's sister. eric wallen is an attorney for john foreman and john depietro is a radio talk show host. john, i will start with you. this five-year-old's body was not found until seven years after he was killed. what took so long and didn't they search the neighborhood? >> they searched the neighborhood but did not search the house of michael. >> why? >> his father was a police
9:44 pm
reservist. they told him to search his own house. he told them he did. the only reason they found the remains is because there was a second victim and a confession. otherwise they never would have found the body of jason in the house. >> because the killer's father is a police reservist they say search your own house? does that mean he knew? >> the police don't believe he knew. many neighbors find it hard to believe. >> i find it hard to believe that the police would let this guy search his own home. >> that is how it was done at that time. >> shame on them. eric, we go to you. they end up finding jason's body and get a confession from the guy. he admits he tortured him and killed him and they find his shellacked bones in his bedroom. why a plea bargain? >> that is the real question and they find a journal which details the atrocities that were actually perpetrated upon
9:45 pm
young jason. whey a plea deal. there had been some that suggested that the family wanted the deal. quite frankly as a prosecutor as i have served and it is the job of the prosecutors not just to do what satisfies a family, it is certainly something you consider but you have to be more concerned about the safety of the community going forward. >> there is no question about it. at the end of the day, you have got this confession, you have got the evidence, why do you need to take a plea deal? i would look for the death penalty in a case like this. someone like this should not be able to breathe the same air that we breathe and all of the hog wash about maybe be acquitted is just that, hog wash. it the family agree to the plea? >> the prosecutor released a statement, judge, that said the family knew he could get out early. they were trying to spare the community, this was the best thing possible, they didn't want to put the second victim through it. no one dreamed he would get 12
9:46 pm
years off for good behavior. >> we have a statement from the prosecutor who is now a judge they knew he could get out on good behavior. raven, did your family know. that? >> we were never told that he would have good time given to him. we were told that he would eventually come up for parole but we had legal means to stop the parole. >> right, you could fight. let me just explain to the viewers what is happening here in rhode island. they are giving this man 12 days a month off because he is good. now, when we send people to prison we expect them to be good. we don't reward them for being good and at the end of the day in addition to that he has an additional couple of days for working. >> and judge this is the problem. this statute while we do have it in rhode island, it is not specific to rhode island. many states around the cuptry have these kinds of it the touts. statutes. we are not only giving violent
9:47 pm
felons access to parole. >> 33 states have truth in sentence. 17 don't. rhode island is one of them. shame on them. what was in the journal, that is whey want to know? >> in the journal that the police found under his mattress he described where he lured the boy in. he wanted to see what it was like to kill someone. he sodomized the bill boy and committed cannibalism. this was a house of sqalo referendum. the cleanest thing in the house was the boy's skull that he polished like a trophy. >> we have to throw his picture up. look at this guy. this is the victim right here. this -- but this guy, this is the picture of evil. raven, ten years old when this happened. you were 17 when they finally found your brother's bones in this man's home. what was your childhood like? >> i didn't have a childhood.
9:48 pm
